Good MorningTuesday's session turned cautious as the market's central tension came into focus: AI infrastructure spend versus the revenue it's supposed to generate. Reports that OpenAI missed its own internal revenue targets rattled chip and data center names after a multi-session semiconductor rally, with selling concentrated in recent leadership while defensives held in. The tape's narrow breadth heading into a heavy earnings week reflected that unease.
Oil briefly touched $100 a barrel as U.S.-Iran negotiations over the Strait of Hormuz stalled, keeping inflation risk elevated and complicating the Fed's posture. The central bank opens its two-day meeting today, with rates expected to hold, but this is also likely Jerome Powell's final meeting as chair before Kevin Warsh takes over, and Warsh's signaled preference for stricter inflation targeting makes the policy transition itself a variable for positioning.
Oracle slid on its OpenAI partnership exposure as the revenue miss rippled through infrastructure plays, while Arm Holdings extended its pullback after a steep AI-driven run. UPS beat estimates but fell as investors zeroed in on a domestic volume dip, feeding margin durability concerns. General Motors was a standout, raising full-year guidance with truck demand holding firm even above $4 gas. Traders are watching Wednesday's Fed statement and Powell's press conference for signals on how energy-driven inflation shapes the rate path under incoming leadership.
